WOrking a government job I had little time to put it back up. Since I had a disabling brain injury I have returned the LiveWire Back online. The LiveWire was once one of the oldest BBS's online. We date back to 1986 in the days of the 300 baud modem. In the early 1990s I moderated this very echo and it saddend me to see nothing here since November of 2015. I'm still involved in many Amiga User groups and I will do everything I can to promote, revive this echo. Since the echo has long sat dormant I am simply salvaging this much like a ship that has been out adrift at sea. No moderator activity monthly rule posting or user activity has been posted in over 8 months... therefore I simply want to see this echo continue and become part of Fidonet's rennaissance. I believe in the Fido... time to let him out of the doghouse and let him run again. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rules: 1. The purpose of this echo is to discuss the classic Commodore Computer System known as the Amiga. The Amiga was an impressive system for it's day. It's video capabailites exceeded that of the Apple Macintosh. Many classic Science Fiction shows of the day had their space scenes rendred through a Video Toaster 2. Moderating handled by the echo Moderator, who is Allen Prunty and he can be reached at allen.prunty@livewirebbs.com or @1:2320/100 3.
